Title : Letter to Sister Bénédicte - Rose Tremain - book

Summary :

As Christmas approaches, in the streets of London filled with the joyful bustle of the festive eve, Ruby Constad is more alone than ever. At fifty, she has lived little more than her two children and her husband. But Paul and Alexandra have not followed the path imagined by their parents. And Léon, her once loving husband, who has become authoritarian and unfaithful, is dying in a hospital bed... In her dismay, Ruby turns to the memory of a nun she knew during her childhood in India. She begins to tell her, in a long imaginary letter, the disappointments of her life. And it is by retracing the past, randomly retracing her memories, her joys, her sorrows, that she will find within herself resources of hope, an appetite for life she never suspected.
